Cops TV Show - My First Favorite Reality Show



 I loved watching Cops in high school and college.

It's hard to believe Cops first aired in 1989. As a teen and twenty-something, I really got a kick out of this program. Watching cops from various cities in Florida, Vegas and Texas busting drug dealers, drunk and stoned teens, street walkers, etc. And who could forget the classically catchy reggae tune "Bad Boys" from Inner Circle

It's unreal to think this documentary-style reality show has run for 25 seasons. Fox cancelled Cops in May 2013, however Spike has come to the rescue! Look for the first episode of season 26 to air on September 14, 2013.

Check out the pilot episode from season 1.

  1. I've never seen Cops, but there's a lot of stuff in this world that I've never seen.

  2. My girlfriend, now wife, watched Cops religiously in the late 80's. I can't think of the one officer's name (John something I think), but he had gray hair and eventually his own Cops-like show. A close second was William Shatner's Emergency 911. Those shows always made you feel better about your own life!

  3. I freaking love this show. I don't care what anyone says or the strange looks I get whenever I mention this fact, which I try to do as much as possible.
